Customer Question

Good landlords, property managers...

Good landlords, property managers the issue is my job. I lost my job, have had no wages since November and cannot afford rent in February, signed a 2 year lease in August 2017 and afraid if breaking it they will want all the money

Lawyer's Assistant: Because laws vary from place to place, can you tell me what state the property is in?

Do I have to pay for this, we are broke?

Lawyer's Assistant: What are the terms of the lease? Any issues related to maintenance or upkeep?

There are typical rules about cleanliness, etc which we abid by and it states 60 days notice of termination

Lawyer's Assistant: Anything else you want the lawyer to know before I connect you?

Nothing else, just I have no money, lost my income and now face breaking a lease
